The Golden State Warriors will be at home against the LA Lakers in their next assignment in the NBA. They enter this match as the eighth seed in the Western Conference and are 3.5 games behind their sixth-placed visitors. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Warriors are going through an injury crisis and have seven players listed on that report. Jimmy Butler is out for the season, while Steph Curry is set to miss a 13th consecutive fixture.
Draymond Green, though, who has missed two of the last three games with a back problem, is probable to feature against the Lakers. The Warriors have been blowing hot and cold and have lost three of their last five games. They did win their last game, though, away against the Grizzlies 113-112.
The Lakers are in desperate need of a win. J.J. Redick’s men have lost their last three matches. LA, which has won just two of its last seven outings, fell to a 113-110 setback against the Suns in Phoenix.
This alarming run of results has the Lakers close to falling into the play-in bracket. The Lakers, who’ve compiled a 34-24 record, are just one game above the play-in.
Rui Hachimura missed the trip to Phoenix due to illness and is doubtful to feature against the Warriors.

Our Golden State Warriors vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction
Our prediction for the Golden State Warriors v the LA Lakers is that the Los Angeles Lakers wins. The Lakers are out of form and come into this match having lost three consecutive matches. They, however, are facing a team that is also struggling and one they defeated just three weeks ago.
Another advantage for the visitors is that they are much healthier than their hosts, who could be without up to seven players. The Warriors are going to miss Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler, among others, while Kristaps Porzingis is questionable.
If your team in the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
